Salah agent shoots down fresh transfer rumours

Mohamed Salah signed a new three-year contract with Liverpool last summer, thus becoming the best paid player in the history of the club, but so-called reports from outside England about his alleged idea to leave Anfield keep popping up. Actually, they’ve been popping up since he started scoring for fun in 2017/18, his first season on Merseyside.

Ramy Abbas Issa, who represents the Egyptian forward, has stepped in to dispel such rumours on more than one occasion this season, and he did it again this weekend, having learned of claims about Salah being open to leaving Liverpool and preferring Spain as his destination. In the past, the 30-year-old was linked with both Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Issa says no move away from Liverpool has been discussed between himself and his client, challenging the journalist to reveal the source of his “exclusive” claim, hastily repeated across Europe.

Needless to say, the challenge has gone unanswered, and at the moment, Salah doesn’t seem to be going anywhere this summer.
